Event Navigation

A taster day for the Get Started with Sport programme The Prince’s Trust are running in conjunction with Cardiff City Foundation.

When is it?

The Taster/Selection Day takes place on Wednesday 15th August with the programme running from Monday 20th August – Friday 24 August inclusive (10am-4pm).

Where does it take place?

The Taster Day takes place at 11am, Cardiff City Stadium, Leckwith Road, Cardiff, CF11 8AZ. The programme takes place at Cardiff City House of Sport, Clos Parc, Morgannwg, Leckwith, Cardiff, CF11 8AW

Who can apply?

Any young person 16-25 who has an enthusiasm for sport (no special skills are required to take part) and currently working less than 16 hours a week or in training or education for less than 14 hours a week can apply. Please note that any criminal convictions will be assessed on a case-by-case basis although any young person with a child abuse related criminal conviction (or pending court case of this nature) will not be able to apply. Any young person wishing to participate in this opportunity must be able to get to the venue on time each day. This is an ideal opportunity for any young person interested in developing skills related to sport and who may be considering exploring a career in this industry such as Sports Coaching or similar.

Is there any cost?

All Prince’s Trust programmes are free for young people. Travelling is paid and in this instance, lunch is provided each day.

What happens after the programme finishes?

The Prince’s Trust only runs programmes where positive outcomes are available for young people upon completion of a programme. In this case, all participants will be invited to take part in the Premier League Works programme (16 weeks of employability skills) and there will hopefully be opportunities to build on the skills gained via volunteer coaching with Cardiff City Foundation and other volunteering routes.

How do I get in touch?

You can call (or drop an email) to any of our Outreach team below who will be happy to assist. (If you don’t feel comfortable with this, ask an adult to help- they can nominate you)
